I started to train in martial arts. As I got stronger, the impact on my knuckles was doing some damage, so I decided to get gloves. I chose century, as I purchased their products before and was amazed by the quality and excellent fit. As with all other products, those gloves delivered everything that was promised. The only comments I have is that the leather is a bit stiff, but I expect that it will soften with use, like every other leather product. I highly recommend this product.
